Description

Cossack warrior Taras Bulba leads his sons Andriy and Ostap into war with Poland, where loyalty to the Sich and hunger for vengeance tear the family apart. Gogol’s fierce novella of patriotism, brotherhood, and tragic cost. Spoken as when the campfire oath outruns the love that still waits at home with empty hands.

Author

Nikolai Gogol (1809–1852) was the master of a satire so quiet it can seem harmless — until the ground shifts beneath it. In Dead Souls he mapped the hollow soul of imperial Russia with comic precision; in The Overcoat and The Nose he turned ordinary clerks and missing body parts into fables of humiliation, obsession, and bureaucratic nightmare.
